setSRS

From the Web Map Service Implementation Specification: "The required SRS parameter states
which Spatial Reference System applies to the values in the BBOX parameter. The value of the
SRS parameter shall be on of the values defined in the character data section of an <SRS>
element defined or inherited by the requested layer. The same SRS applies to all layers in a
single request. If the WMS has declared SRS=NONE for a Layer, then the Layer does not have a
well-defined spatial reference system and should not be shown in conjunction with other
layers. The client shall specify SRS as "none" in the GetMap request and the Server may issue
a Service Exception otherwise."

setBBox

From the Web Map Service Implementation Specification: "The required BBOX parameter allows a
Client to request a particular Bounding Box. The value of the BBOX parameter in a GetMap
request is a list of comma-separated numbers of the form "minx,miny,maxx,maxy". If the WMS
server has declared that a Layer is not subsettable, then the Client shall specify exactly
the declared Bounding Box values in the GetMap request and the Server may issue a Service
Exception otherwise."

Yu must also call setSRS to provide the spatial reference system information (or CRS:84
will be assumed)

setBBox

setFormat

From the Web Map Service Implementation Specification: "The required FORMAT parameter states
the desired format of the response to an operation. Supported values for a GetMap request on
a WMS instance are listed in one or more <Format> elements in the &;ltRequest><GetMap>
element of its Capabilities XML. The entire MIME type string in <Format> is used as the
value of the FORMAT parameter."

setDimensions

From the Web Map Service Implementation Specification: "The required WIDTH and HEIGHT
parameters specify the size in integer pixels of the map image to be produced. WIDTH
specifies the number of pixels to be used between the minimum and maximum X values
(inclusive) in the BBOX parameter, while HEIGHT specifies the number of pixels between the
minimum and maximum Y values. If the WMS server has declared that a Layer has fixed width and
height, then the Client shall specify exactly those WIDTH and HEIGHT values in the GetMap
request and the Server may issue a Service Exception otherwise."

setDimensions

setTransparent

public void setTransparent(boolean transparent)

From the Web Map Service Implementation Specification: "The optional TRANSPARENT parameter
specifies whether the map background is to be made transparent or not. The default value is
false if the parameter is absent from the request."

setBGColour

Specifies the colour, in hexidecimal format, to be used as the background of the map. It is a
String representing RGB values in hexidecimal format, prefixed by "0x". The format is:
0xRRGGBB. The default value is 0xFFFFFF (white)
